Evaluation of a novel forward-looking optical coherence tomography probe for endoscopic applications: an ex vivo feasibility study
Some relevant tissue structures could be observed in OCT images of the novel device. However, some adaptations, such as increasing imaging depth using a laser with a longer central wavelength, are required to improve its clinical value for the imaging of colorectal lesions.
